Chapter 160: Reaching the Ancient City

After eating, everyone discussed it and finally decided to look for it separately. However, everyone still retained enough curiosity about the huge building to the north. Although time was tight, ten people still decided to go in and take a look. The area of ​​this building covers too large, and it is estimated that it is the size of a county town. Qin and Jin stood up one after another, and ten people slowly walked towards the ruins in the north.

The closer they got, the more desolate Qin Jin could feel. When they approached the first earthen wall or something, Qin Jin touched the earthen wall made of unknown materials. When they slowly approached the ruins, the more they could feel that the age of the ruins was, probably thousands of years old. You can see at a glance that this was an ancient military fortress. Otherwise, the surrounding city walls could not be so thick. The earthen walls on all sides were about six meters thick, and most of the walls were buried under the yellow sand, so they couldn't see how high they were.

But looking at the houses in this city, only one roof is exposed, and the city wall is exposed more than two meters high, you can see that the height of this city wall will never be much lower. "This should be an ancient city, right? Do you know what famous ancient cities are in this area in history?" Qin Jin asked in confusion: "I don't know, there should be no famous cities in this area in history, but the scale of this city is not small, and it should be a big city in ancient times."

Xie Yulong shook his head and said, it took several people about twenty minutes to walk to the other side of the ancient city. Due to yesterday's storm, it was obviously buried under the yellow sand. The storm hung the sand dunes for a distance. This dune that had been buried for many years before revealing its true face from the desert. There was obviously countless sand on the other side of the ancient city, so the top of a town was exposed, but the sand in the north had been completely removed.

You can even see the blue bricks on the ancient street. In the northern towns, this is not the most surprising thing they have seen. What is most surprising is that there are countless skeletons in front of the dilapidated city gates on the street. These skeletons are incomplete, and there are countless corroded weapons, guns, knives, arrows, etc. around them.

It is conceivable that there was such a huge war here, and there were hundreds of skeletons in just a small part of the north. Qin and Jin just walked by gently, and no one spoke. Even after a thousand years, there seemed to be countless sadness and the souls of countless warriors. Qin and Jin and Jin could even feel the sadness of the heroes, the sadness that never returned.

"They are heroes." Although they don't know which country or dynasty the people here are from, they all have a common understanding. When Qin and Jin walked to the gate of the northern city, they showed an amazing picture, which was a skeleton, an extremely complete skeleton, and there were broken armor on his body. This is not surprising, but what is surprising is that there is an iron gun inside the body of the skeleton, and even the barrel and the tip of the gun were cast from iron. The gun was inserted straight on his back.

The tail of the gun was inserted tightly into the blue bricks on the street. I don’t know how deep it was. The skeleton was supported by the gun and stood straight at the city gate. After thousands of years, it did not fall. "This is a general!" Lao Ma walked to the front of the skeleton, looked at the skeleton, and came to a simple conclusion. "Why?" Qin Jin didn’t understand. He didn’t know very well about history, and didn’t know where Lao Ma could tell that the skeleton was a general.

"Looking at his clothes, ancient soldiers were all wearing cloth clothes. Do you think the armor made of chain iron armor can be worn by soldiers?" Lao Ma said, "Oh, so that's it. But he is really a hero." Qin Jin said, ten people agreed. Everyone knew why he stood like this. After watching the general in the movie Myth that Jackie Chan filmed, Qin Jin always thought it was blown, but now he saw this skeleton, he believed it.

The soldiers who would rather die than die are heroes in any era. Qin and Jin saluted the skeleton and left the place. They didn't want to do anything or disturb the soldier, so let him rest in peace. Qin and Jin and others left the ancient city one after another. After leaving the place, Qin and Jin divided the ten men into five groups again, and then walked in different directions. Fan Wei in the southwest was too big.

It is more likely to go to the destination by walking separately, but Qin Jin and the others did not expect that when it was dawn, Qin Jin and the others heard the roar of the helicopter, and then a red signal flare rose from afar, which was particularly eye-catching in the sky. Qin Jin and Xie Yulong looked at each other, and then immediately ran to that place excitedly to see the location of the signal flare. It was probably about three kilometers away from them, but they still had three hours now, so they could definitely reach it at the specified time.

But if it were the last few groups, I don’t know. Qin and Jin tried their best to rush over. Although they ate enough food in the middle of the night, the two of them were not much physically strong. They were tortured for a whole day yesterday. They first encountered the Death Sand Scorpion, and then there was a storm and tornado. Although Qin and Jin and others all passed through safely, the consumption of physical strength was not a small part, and when the night came, they marched for several hours, and they didn’t have time to rest until the middle of the night.

But after a whole day of fatigue, I only had a rest for more than an hour, it didn't have much effect on the recovery of physical strength. Now it would be a miracle that Qin and Jin could move around. The physical strength of the two of them had reached the verge of collapse. If they hadn't just seen a signal flare rising, God knows how long they could last. With hope, they had motivation and took nearly an hour and a half.

Qin Jin and Xie Yulong finally climbed the last dune and looked at the base below. Qin Jin and others finally felt like they were reborn. Life in the desert is really not a person's life. Even Xie Yulong felt in a trance. Whether it was a death scorpion, a desert storm, or a tornado, it was difficult to encounter. It was probably not much different from winning the lottery, but Qin Jin and others encountered it. I have to say that sometimes, character is really important.

It took more than twenty minutes, Qin Jin and Xie Yulong supported each other and rushed into the base. As soon as they entered the base, they saw that the instructor was waiting there. After saluting the instructor, the two lined up in the queue. They were not the first to come back. Seven people had already returned. Seven people... Seeing this number, Qin Jin felt a little depressed. When they left, they were in a group, but now there were odd numbers. What happened was self-evident.

I hope that the person was only injured and was now receiving treatment in the medical room of the base. After waiting for more than twenty minutes, the instructor looked at his watch and told Qin Jin that they could go to rest, but they only had six hours of rest and there was training in the afternoon. Qin Jin and Xie Yulong immediately rushed into the bathhouse under the leadership of another instructor. The water in the desert was very sparse, so of course they would not be too extravagant to let Qin Jin and the others take a bath.

When it comes to taking a bath, each person has a basin of water. As for how to wash it, it depends on your own. It was the first time that Qin Jin came into contact with such a dosage bath, and it was only one basin of water. However, Xie Yulong was quite happy to wash it. Qin Jin also followed Xie Yulong's appearance and slowly began to clean his body. After just one day, Qin Jin's body seemed to have turned a lot darker again.

When a basin of water completely turned into dim mud, Qin Jin almost poured out a basin of water. Fortunately, Xie Yulong pulled him away. "What are you doing?" Qin Jin asked in confusion. "What are you doing?" Xie Yulong asked hurriedly, "It's poured." Qin Jin said naturally. "Go to death, if you don't want to wash your face in the next month, just pour it down." Xie Yulong let go of his hand and said.

"Damn it, don't you? Can this water wash your face?" Qin Jin asked, looking at the full basin of dim water, "Of course, put it in the barracks. When we come back from training, the mud and sand on it will sink to the bottom of the basin. Wouldn't the water on it be very clear?" Xie Yulong rolled his eyes and said, "I'm dizzy, don't we even wash your face?" Qin Jin asked with a wry smile. "Brother, what do you think this is? This is a desert, a desert, and a drop of water is more expensive than a bucket of oil. Giving you a basin of water is already very generous. Listen to me, take the basin of water back to the barracks."

Although he was unwilling to believe it, Qin Jin had no choice but to follow Xie Yulong with two basins of dim water to the barracks that he had just pointed to them. When they came out, Qin Jin saw that a few other people were like them, and they were also walking into the barracks with a basin of water. Seeing this, Qin Jin knew that Xie Yulong was not lying. It seemed that this place was really short of water.

Back to the barracks, carefully found a place to put the baby down, and then casually found a bed, Qin Jin fell on it and fell asleep. It has to be said that after being extremely tired, people fell asleep really fast. Qin Jin was useless even for twenty seconds, and he was already in a state of sleep.
